Description
During vertebrate retinogenesis, the precise balance between retinoblast proliferation and differentiation is spatially and temporally regulated through a number of intrinsic factors and extrinsic signaling pathways. Moreover, there are complex gene regulatory network interactions between these intrinsic factors and extrinsic pathways, which ultimately function to determine when retinoblasts exit the cell cycle and terminally differentiate. We recently uncovered a cell non-autonomous role for the intrinsic HLH factor, Id2a, in regulating retinoblast proliferation and differentiation, with Id2a-deficient retinae containing an abundance of proliferative retinoblasts and an absence of terminally differentiated retinal neurons and glia. Here, we report that Id2a function is necessary and sufficient to limit Notch pathway activity during retinogenesis. Id2a-deficient retinae possess elevated levels of Notch pathway component gene expression, while retinae overexpressing id2a possess reduced expression of Notch pathway component genes. Attenuation of Notch signaling activity by DAPT or by morpholino knockdown of Notch1a is sufficient to rescue both the proliferative and differentiation defects in Id2a-deficient retinae. In addition to regulating Notch pathway activity, through an RNA-Seq and differential gene expression analysis of Id2a-deficient retinae, we identify a number of additional intrinsic and extrinsic regulatory pathway components whose expression is regulated by Id2a. These data highlight the integral role played by Id2a in the gene regulatory network governing the transition from retinoblast proliferation to terminal differentiation during vertebrate retinogenesis. Overall design: Two biological replicates for both Id2aMM and Id2aMO samples

Description
Copper-based chemotherapeutic compounds Casiopeinas, have been presented as able to promote selective programmed cell death in cancer cells, thus being proper candidates for targeted cancer therapy. DNA fragmentation and apoptosis -in a process mediated by reactive oxygen species- for a number of tumor cells, have been argued to be the main mechanisms. However, a detailed functional mechanism (a model) is still to be defined and interrogated for a wide variety of cellular conditions; before establishing settings and parameters needed for their wide clinical application.

Description
Many bacterial pathogens of plants and humans cause infections by delivering effector proteins into host cells. Elucidation of how pathogen effector proteins function not only is critical for understanding bacterial pathogenesis, but also provides an important tool in discovering the functions of host genes. In this study, we characterized the Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 effector AvrE, the founding member of a widely distributed, yet functionally enigmatic, bacterial effector family. We show that AvrE is localized in the plasma membrane (PM) and PM-associated vesicle-like structures in the plant cell. AvrE contains two physically interacting domains, and the N terminal portion contains a plasma membrane localization signal. Genome-wide microarray analysis indicates that AvrE, as well as a functionally-redundant effector HopM1, down-regulates the expression of the NDR1/HIN1-Like 13 gene in Arabidopsis. Mutational analysis shows that NHL13 is required for plant immunity, as the nhl13 mutant plant displayed enhanced disease susceptibility. Our results defined the site of action of one of the most important bacterial virulence proteins in plants and the anti-bacterial immunity function of the NHL13 gene.

Description
ALTERED MERISTEM PROGRAM1 (AMP1) is a member of the M28 family of carboxypeptidases with a pivotal role in plant development and stress adaptation. Its most prominent mutant defect is a unique hypertrophic shoot phenotype combining a strongly increased organ formation rate with enhanced meristem size and the formation of ectopic meristem poles. However, so far the role of AMP1 in shoot development could not be assigned to a specific molecular pathway nor is its biochemical function resolved. We used a chemical genetic approach to identify the drug hyperphyllin (HP), which specifically mimics the shoot defects of amp1, including plastochron reduction and enlargement and multiplication of the shoot meristem. To further assess whether hyperphyllin acts in an AMP1-dependent manner we compared the transcriptonal responses of hyperphyllin-treated wild-type and amp1 mutant seedlings.

Comparison of the meis2b+ and the meis2b- halves of the atrium of the adult zebrafish atrium reveals the existence of two different transcriptional domains. These two domains analogous to that of the two atria in terrestrial vertebrates Overall design: To determine the expression profiles of the Tg(meis2b-reporter)-positive vs -negative atrial compartments, a total of 6 hearts of 3 mpf Tg(meis2b-reporter) zebrafish were micro-dissected. A total of 4 pools were made: the first two pools, each contained 3 Tg(meis2b-reporter)-positive atrial compartments, and the other two contained the Tg(meis2b-reporter)-negative halves.

Description
First, transcriptome analysis of purified CD31+ endothelial cells (ECs) from VEGF-treated sprouting embryoid bodies showed angiogenesis as the top affected category when Apelin is not present. In addition, loss of Apelin resulted in the modulation of pathways in ECs related to vasculogenesis, cell adhesion and response to hypoxia. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) further identified VEGFR pathway as the main upstream regulator affected in endothelial cells, closely followed by the TGFß1 and TNF pathways, all reduced in the absence of Apelin. The most inhibited genes from the VEGFR pathway in the absence of Apelin are angiogenesis-related genes. Second, transcriptome analysis of CD31+/CD105+ ECs sorted from Apelin wild-type and Apln-depleted tumors found a significant decrease in processes associated with endothelial cell proliferation and angiogenesis in ECs sorted out of Apelin-depleted tumors using IPA. Further, IPA predicted a decrease in the adhesion of granulocytes and upstream regulator analysis showed that proteins of the TGF-superfamily, Inhibin-ßA and TGF-ß1, as well as C/EBP-alpha, ß-Catenin, ErbB2 and EGFR are predicted to be inhibited upstream regulators in ECs isolated from Apelin-depleted tumors. Overall design: Transcriptome analysis of purified CD31+ endothelial cells from VEGF-treated in vitro sprouting vessels in Apelin presence or absence. Transcriptome analysis of tumor endothelial cells from Apelin wild-type and depleted conditions. We report the application of Smart-Seq2 sequencing to populations of 100 endothelial cells, sorted from tumors that were Apelin wild-type or depleted.
